As a result, I lost my precious time.
Korea's biggest goal in March was to secure an early berth to the 2026 World Cup finals in North America. With the team stably maintaining its No. 1 ranking in the group, Korea added two wins and secured a ticket in eight matches. The goal was highly likely to be achieved in reality.
However, Korea had draws against Oman and Jordan, only acquiring two points. Far from making an early decision, the team had a sense of fear that it could move on to the fourth preliminary round in the worst case scenario. It is still in the lead with 16 points, but Jordan (13 points) and Iraq (12) are one step closer.
The regrettable thing about the failure to confirm at an early date is that the test will not be conducted even in June. Korea has to bet its fate on the match against Iraq in the ninth round. It can secure a ticket to the finals even if it ties with Iraq, but if it loses, the situation will be complicated. It is a one-point gap with Iraq, and if Jordan beats Oman, it will collapse to second place. Jordan and South Korea have 16 points and Iraq 15 points, and they will enter the 10th round.
In the final match, South Korea will face Kuwait, while Jordan and Iraq will face off. Since one of the two teams sweeps all the points or shares one point each, South Korea is likely to keep second place even if it loses to Kuwait.
There is still a high possibility of going to the finals, but anything can happen to South Korea, which has drawn in the last three consecutive games. As we have no choice but to assume the worst, we have no choice but to set up a team at the best in June and go all-in to the Iraq match. It is possible to confirm after the Iraq match, but it is difficult to make the selection itself unconventional or bold.
Consequently, experiments or tests for the World Cup finals will be possible during the A-match period in September. Although the East Asian Football Confederation (EAFF) E-1 Football Championship will be held in July, the competition will allow players 먹튀검증 who play in the K-League and in Asia. As players cannot join the team, they only have half the capacity to play in Europe. In fact, Coach Hong Myung-bo is organizing the team mainly in European leagues. The most important thing for the team is to check players who are active in Europe but have yet to be established in the national team, which has been delayed.
The North Korea-China World Cup will open in June next year. Although there seems to be enough time left, it is also a short time considering the number of calls. The precious time lost due to the failure of early confirmation may have an adverse effect on Hong Myung-bo, who is preparing to go to the finals.
